Plunderphonics always bring about a wave of nostalgia, and the distinct use of Hearth’s Warming and winter themed vocal samples emphasize that cheery warm feeling even further! One thing that really stands out is the simpler instrumental design giving those wonderful chops all the breathing room they need, wistfully complimenting them with their chimes while simultaneously grabbing your attention. Between the wintery chops, bell-like synths, and the always cheerful voice of Ponyville’s resident pink pony; Gloomy Skies and Holidays is quite the warm seasonal spectacle!
